                                                        About NCHMA
                               NCHMA is the only professional body dedicated exclusively to the field of
                               residential rental real estate market analysis. NCHMA’s members are comprised of
                               professionals involved in performing and reviewing residential market studies. The
                               Council presents opportunities for market analysts to discuss current issues,
                               network, and gain state-of-the-art information. In this spirit, NCHMA, under the
                               leadership of its Executive Committee, formally adopted and released the
                               following products, all of which are available at www.housingonline.com.

                               Market Study Terminology
                               A set of uniform definitions of key terms commonly used in market studies for
                               proposed affordable rental housing projects, particularly developments utilizing
                               the federal low-income housing tax credit.

                               Model Content Standards for Market Studies for Rental Housing
                               A set of recommendations on the specific types of information, data, analysis, and
                               conclusions that should be contained or addressed in a market study for an
                               affordable rental housing project.

                               Market Study Index
                               Intended to help the reader of a market study find specific information quickly,
                               this checklist provides a list of the specific individual component areas of
Presented by NH&RA and NCHMA

                               information that the Model Content Standards says should be provided in a
                               market study, with a space where the analyst can insert the page number of
                               where each component is addressed in the study.

                               Market Study Certification
                               Signed by the analyst, who is a NCHMA member and prepared the market study,
                               the statement will certify that the analyst has no financial interest in the project
                               and that the market study has been prepared in conformance with NCHMA’s
                               Market Study Terminology and Model Content Standards (and, in areas where it
                               does not conform, the reasons for non-conformance).

    NCHMA White Papers and Research
Recommended Practices for LIHTC Average Income Properties
The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2018 created a third minimum set-aside
election to meet the qualified LIHTC project requirements referred to as the
“Average Income Test.” This white paper explores how to select comparables and
calculate the achievable rent levels and capture rates for 70 and 80 of area median
income units. The author identifies several red flags including lack of legitimate
comparables, large adjustments and comparables from well outside the Primary
Market Area.
Factors to Consider in Market Analysis of a Preservation Property
In an effort to preserve Section 8 and Section 236 properties as affordable rental
housing, many non-profit and for-profit developers are using tax credit equity to
renovate the properties. This paper explores a range of factors to be considered in
market analysis of preservation properties and recommends best practices for
market analysis.
Selecting Comparable Properties
Comparable properties are used for several purposes within a market study. They
are used to help evaluate the market, to evaluate the subject’s position within a
market and used to determine market rents. The more similar the comparable
properties are to the proposed property, the more reliable the conclusions that
may be drawn. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the concepts involved in
selecting comparable properties, and to identify some of the ways comparable
properties are used in a study.
Calculating Market Rent
A market analysis for income properties, which includes rental units, requires an
estimate of market rent. Depending on the purpose of the study, it could be an
average market rent for all units in a defined market area, a weighted average
market rent for all units, or for various unit types, i.e. studio, one or two
bedrooms.
Scope of Work & Reporting Options
This document aims to improve the level of consistency and transparency of
affordable housing market studies through a well-defined scope of work. It
outlines three distinct reporting options for analysts who regularly conduct market
reports with varying degrees of detail and/or conclusions. This document
recognizes that different types of market study products exist, and provides
guidance for clearly communicating the depth of a market study's content and
conclusions.
